No: Fetal alcohol syndrome is from the mother drinking alcohol during pregancy.

Not really: Sperm are produced continuously from stem cells and it is the healthiest/best swimmer that gets to the egg first and triggers pregnancy.There is a chance that some of the sperm may be less potent, but this is a situation where any effect limits the chance that single sperm would work. Fetal alcohol syndrome is an exposure duration issue where mothers consumption affects the fetus over time.
